I am wondering about your pricing and how you imagine your tool being used with so few requests... I might manually use 150 GPT4 requests in a day... but your $97/mo plan includes 150/mo?
The starter plan is generally for experimentation purposes and for those who only need the less powerful models (GPT 3.5, gemini pro, perplexity 70b). Everyone on the pro plan can add their own API keys and unlock unlimited AI calls.
I think we need pasture... some interesting perspectives in this piece. I think we should probably stay focused on nourishment, as a society. Not the opposite, but thank you for sharing this propaganda.
Give me some time to fall in love, and I'll happily pay. It seems so shortsighted, as if I'd somehow use up all the usefulness of your app in 7 days or perhaps even 30 days.
Its a tool for work, and if it can reduce my load in any significant way I'd pay $500 for it. Now, I'll never really know. Too bad... for both of us.
I get your point and have thought a lot about it before deciding on 3 days.
3 days was a compromise between having a short sales cycle (we are bootstraping the app) and letting users try the app before they buy it. We also have an online version available for free without any time limitations. The only thing the online version can't do is open local files.
We'll reconsider extending the trial to 7 days.
If you like the app and feel it could be useful to you it would be a shame to blow it off simply because of the short trial. If you need to try it out for longer, just send me an email and I'll set you up.
I would say the act of "Pinning" an article of digital content is an act of comment. It is shorthand for "This is really interesting to me. Maybe you'll like it too?"

Strikes me that as long as you personally only "repin" content that Pinterest have already provided to you then your personal liability shouldn't come in to play.
Pinterest are providing a user-tagged image search service quite like Google's image search (in legal context at least) IMO. Where it differs really is that the user-tagging is explicit (though I assume that Google still have that tagging "game" in place) and that the images that Pinterest host are larger [full-sized?]. I see re-pinning as akin to providing a link to a Google Image search page; the service provider in both cases has initially made the image copy and the user has simply referenced that and added meta-data.
Now I do think things are a bit more fuzzy in the situation where the user causes the Pinterest service provider to acquire the image. But again it is the service provider that is retaining the copy of the creators work. Moreover if you just choose to "pin it" when you add rather than upload then you don't even locally store the images.
Where things get really interesting to me is if you use Pinterest (which I assume is a USA based service) to get content from another country. Pinterest should find that they're subject to the local laws but the user should only be subject (to my mind) to USA law and their own local laws. This could cause some major problems for Pinterest IMO.
In short, to my view it looks like the liability for any tortuous action WRT copyright lies with Pinterest and not the user excepting if the user uploads directly.
I've worked with numerous retailers who use something like this. Usually an eMail server just makes a ping when a payment notification comes in.
During peak seasons (read: December) at an ecommerce company of mine a few years ago, we did pretty much exactly this. We used a cash register sound, though. Played it into the office and warehouse so everybody knew how fast things needed to be going. Totally worked, the faster the register went, the harder everyone worked.
I'd imagine your brand name carries a low CPC, so the cost to ensure potential clients find you would be pretty low.
Use [exact match] keywords, campaign goal of clicks, and a pretty basic/clean ad with some sitelinks.
Worst case, you're really visible and it adds some authority to relevant serps.
